Sleeping Muse, Oil on paper, 10" x 30"

Compositionally, I perceive art as a visual melody, which can be as simple as a song, or as complex as a symphony. Somewhere in the music - in the image - is an expression of the human condition, be it narrowly focused or grandly sweeping. Along those lines, I see the role of the figure in my art much as the role a dancer plays in a ballet: profoundly moving in and of itself, yet a cohesive part of a larger story. My ultimate artistic desire is to integrate the human element into expressive compositions that are visually compelling, intellectually stimulating, and which engage the viewer on multiple levels.

My work is generally representative, and predominantly figurative as I'm particularly inspired by the grace and beauty inherent in the human form. I paint primarily in oil, and draw using just about any applicable media.
